Oh God yes.. you have no idea
Back in '99, they essentially came to our campus, hooked us up with local alums, did LEAD Phase I, sent us all the free literature we asked for, and wished us luck in meeting several milestones, compiling a petition for charter (the only real guidance there was that they provided us a copy of the petition from the Colorado School of Mines), and recruitment. Not a lot of further advice or support was offered except for annual visits from a consultant.
In '01 or thereabouts, after we'd been spinning our wheels, taking two steps forward and one step back, they came up with VBR, a completely different colonization plan, etc.
We started on that path and finally had our charter granted in '02. We were Rock Honorable Mention last year, so I guess we're doing okay for a new chapter.
At any rate, yes, things are different, we're actually good at putting in successful colonies in. HQ has really broken the code there. Whatever they're doing now is working.
